Industry 5.0: Tracking Scientific Activity on the Most Influential Industries, Associated Topics, and Future Research Agenda

Abstract

Industry 5.0 arrived and sounded the alarms, warning entrepreneurs to adopt it as quickly as possible; the advantage is that this industry is still in its preliminary stages. However, there is little research on this model in the literature. In this context, the objective of this study was to analyze the current state of industry 5.0 in 215 publications from the Scopus database during the period 2019–2022. The applied methodology was quantitative analysis, with a bibliometric approach supported by the VOSviewer and RStudio software, in addition to the Microsoft Excel application. The results showed: (1) an exponential growth of article and conference paper publications in 2022, all indexed in journals of subject areas such as engineering and computer science; (2) four more industries influenced by i5.0, where the electronics sector leads well above manufacturing, energy and public service; (3) seven research topics associated with i5.0 that deal with the transition from industry 4.0 to 5.0; and (4) six little-explored research topics that would help i5.0 move to a new stage and which are related to environmental sustainability, social sustainability, cobots, bioeconomy, smart cities, and sentiment analysis. This study found a gap in the industry 5.0 literature; therefore, this document serves as a guide for future research.

Feature extraction for artificial intelligence enabled food supply chain failure mode prediction

“…Many researchers claim that artificial intelligence has yet to be fully exploited for the full benefit of supply chains [38]. Potential applications of artificial intelligence in agri-food industry include cognitive computing for complex problems [39], sentiment analysis [40], human-machine collaboration providing, for example, improved marketing strategies that reduce waste and overproduction [41], autonomous learning systems which self-program, self-organize and self-optimize, and digital twins supported by rapid-response artificial intelligence algorithms [42]. The key enablers for the adoption of artificial intelligence in food grain supply chains in India have been explored, finding 16 significant enablers [43].…”

Artificial Intelligence in the Smart City — A Literature Review

“…In the manufacturing sector, AI has played a pivotal role in the development of intelligent systems, enhancing decision-making and increasing flexibility in physical processes to meet the dynamic global market demands (Espina-Romero et al, 2023).…”

AI-Powered Innovation in Digital Transformation: Key Pillars and Industry Impact

“…This has created significant growth in big data generated by various smart digital devices. Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven big data processing technologies that utilize pattern recognition, machine learning, and deep learning have emerged as solutions for handling large-scale heterogeneous data [1,2]. AI-driven big data processing opens doors for AI-powered innovations based on created data.…”
